Anyway korean homestay students used to stock up on these and leave them behind when they went home. it's a pretty decent instant noodle, fairly recommended
The 3x is legit. It's not like these "one shot" challenges where you can just get it over with and then suffer for a bit. It's a whole fucking bowl of ramen. Like 30 bites worth of pain and then when you are done your entire stomach is filled with it and you have to carry it around all day.
I'm kinda curious now what the multiplier is based on, someone's perception or just multiplied ingredients, or measurable unit.
They have a regular spicy ramen, which is more spicy than what most people can take, and then there's 2x, double the amount of chilly from the regular one. And the 3x you can guess what it is.
I've had the 2x before and it's uncomfortably hot but my criticism is that the overall taste of this brand of ramen is not that great.
And the size is like 2 portions
i guess compared to ichiban and such but its fairly standard size for a Korean instant noodle
